Green Beauty: Seaflora

We recently watched The Little Mermaid – don’t ask! – and now cannot get that song, ‘Under the sea, darling it’s better down where it’s wetter, under the sea…’ out of our head. And, we got to thinking maybe it wouldn’t be so bad to splash around in the ocean all day, it would do wonders for our complexion. However, once we got our head out of the bubbles, we realized that it wouldn’t be so convenient to live off shore.

That’s when we started to search for a skin care line that brought a little of the marine life to us, and we found just that—Seaflora Wild Organic Skincare. This natural beauty line uses wild seaweed that has been hand-harvested from Canada’s Pacific Ocean, off the outer coast of British Columbia. The result? Products that are rich in potassium, vitamins and minerals, all of which are important in promoting healthy skin, fighting against inflammation and helping slow the skin’s aging process, not to mention hypoallergenic, and free of perfumes, colours and parabens.

We picked up the Seaflora Companion Wrap for Face ($64) which includes the Sea Foam Cleanser Concentrate, the Iridaea Exfoliating Masque, the Iridaea Purifying Masque, the Potent Sea Kelp Masque, Laminaria Facial Moisturizer, Rich Laminaria Facial Moisturizer and full instructions for our own at-home facial treatments. Perfect for all skin types, we love how it left our skin feeling luxurious, glowing and well, just like a day at the beach!
